These strikes are aimed mainly at <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/main-news\/rosiya-gotuye-masovanyj-udar-ukrayina\/\">civilian infrastructure<\/a> - residential buildings and energy facilities. This intensity of attacks continues to cause significant damage and threatens the safety of the Ukrainian population.<\/p>\n<h2>Strengthening Ukraine's air defence system with new supplies<\/h2>\n<p>To counter massive attacks, Ukraine has received a new IRIS-T launcher from Germany.
